The schedule for the in-season tournament was released on August 15, 2024, two days before much of the regular season schedule was released. The semi-finals and championship game were hosted in the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.

The Finals, like all four rounds of the NBA playoffs, are a best-of-seven series, as has been the case since 2003. The Finals feature a 2-2-1-1-1 format, with the team with the better record hosting Games 1, 2, 5 and 7 and the other team hosting Games 3, 4 and 6.
